David also shares his personal experiences growing up and the impact it had on his life. He discusses how he was often left on his own as a young age, with his mother working and going to school. This left him fending for himself and having to figure out dinner and other tasks on his own. He recalls having to save up money to order a pizza on the nights his mom was at school.

Larry Hagner acknowledges David's journey and the positive impact he is making through his work with the Dad Edge Alliance. By helping men improve their relationships and become better fathers, David is creating a ripple effect that will benefit not only his own children but also future generations. The host commends David for breaking the cycle of neglect and creating a legacy of love and support.

He notes that historically, men have found their sense of purpose in their careers, quantifying their success through promotions and accolades. However, this can lead to emptiness and a lack of fulfillment. He encourages men to also focus on their roles at home and the impact they have on their families. By recognizing and valuing their contributions as fathers and husbands, men can find a deeper sense of purpose and fulfillment.

Emmanuel Guarino is the Founder of Team Vulnerable. Their mission is to help other married couples overcome porn addiction and have a relationship and life filled with vulnerability and freedom.

In this episode, Larry Hagner interviews Emmanuel Guarino who shares his personal story of struggling with a porn addiction. Emmanuel talks about his lack of sex education growing up and how he started watching porn at a young age. He reveals that his addiction escalated in college and caused problems in his relationship, including erectile dysfunction on his wedding night.

Emmanuel Guarino describes the negative impact porn had on his life and how it took a toll on his mental health. He then shares a pivotal moment during COVID when he realized he needed help and reached out to God for guidance.

His addiction escalated to the point where it interfered with his wedding night. Despite his intentions to quit watching porn before marrying Becca, he found himself unable to perform sexually due to porn-induced erectile dysfunction. This revelation was a devastating blow to both Emmanuel and Becca, as he had to explain that his inability was not a reflection of her desirability or attractiveness. It was a consequence of his addiction and the distorted mindset it had created.

Emmanuel's story serves as a poignant example of how porn addiction can ruin relationships and lives. It highlights the detrimental effects it can have on intimacy, trust, and emotional well-being. Porn addiction not only distorts an individual's perception of sex and relationships but also leads to a breakdown in communication and emotional connection.

It is essential to recognize the seriousness of porn addiction and the need for support and treatment. Emmanuel's story emphasizes the importance of open and honest conversations about sex education and the impact of pornography. Education should focus on healthy relationships, consent, and the potential consequences of excessive porn consumption.

Brad Stulberg researches, writes, and coaches health, well-being, and sustainable excellence. He is the bestselling author of The Practice of Groundedness, and co-author of Peak Performance. He also serves as the co-host of The Growth Equation podcast and is on faculty at the University of Michigan's Graduate School of Public Health. In his coaching practice, he works with executives, entrepreneurs, physicians, and athletes on their mental skills and overall well-being.

In this episode of The Dad Edge, Larry interviews Brad Stulberg, author of "Master of Change". Brad shares his insights on navigating change and the paradox of trying to master it. He discusses his journey from economics and psychology to studying public health and becoming interested in what it means to thrive. Brad's book, "Peak Performance," focuses on sustainable ways to perform at one's best.

Brad Stulberg then emphasizes the importance of embracing change for personal growth. It challenges the traditional notion of stability and highlights the concept of allostasis, which suggests that stability is achieved through change. He argues that change is not abnormal or something to be feared, but rather an integral part of life.

From the moment we are born, we are constantly growing, evolving, and adapting to new circumstances. Change is an inevitable part of life. Yet, many of us fear change. We cling to the familiar, the comfortable, and the known. We resist the idea of stepping out of our comfort zones and embracing the unknown. As Brad and Larry argues, to fear change is to fear life itself.

Change challenges individuals to adapt, problem-solve, and develop resilience. It pushes individuals out of their stagnant routines and encourages them to explore new possibilities. By embracing change, individuals can expand their comfort zones, learn new skills, and gain new perspectives.
